We all know that this place is basically the next thing to dead with Matt, Justin, Peter and I the only one's posting on a semi-regular basis. It doesn't have to be like this though, it is possible to use some strange voodoo forum necromancy and bring this place back to life as it should be, it has and had some of the soundest posters and people I've ever met.

This is completely open to discussion and suggestion but my idea is to completely archive all that has so far been posted and start anew, that way we won't look like a dead board and perhaps we'll have a new focus to draw people (this focus is certainly open to suggestion), I realize that people have school and work to contend with (I myself have the most important exams of my life to face in June and haven't been studying, ahm...) so perhaps we should be laying ground plans now and initiate them in June or July.

What do you guys think?

Personally, I think it's a great idea. I hope Matt and Ryan are up for it, too, but really starting anew is a great idea I think, just depends on how we're going to do it, and if there is any trouble in it.

Archiving everything is a good idea, IMO.

Start fresh, but not physically lose everything.

The new topic, though, is up for debate. I'm fresh out of ideas aside from an "All-Around-General-Chat" board.

Although, if we went that route we could still have a website and post up articles, jokes, and just random shit.

[Furioku]

Well, we shouldn't worry about an exact topic just yet, definitely should work on archiving everything and starting fresh, then work on a new topic, as if we had just built the board. Like working from the ground up.

Wheres Matt been currently? I haven't heard from him in ages.

I'm game. Maybe I can say 'fuck' and be an asshole here, then.

[Invincible]

You totally can! Censorship = nazism!

Sorry I've just been so totally non-busy that I just don't much anymore. I will try to have more 'go' about me round the forums :) I like the idea. Whenever you open any sub-forum all you see is memories and I can imagine that is very off putting for new members.

On the subject, while general discusion is good we do need a gimic I suppose because people wont search general chat forums and find TGP if you ask me, though I don't know >.<

We could do sexy tunes? You know, tunes that are so sexy, people go, "ooh... To this tune, I will shag".

[Furioku]

We should definitely go ahead with that archiving thing. :(

[Ryan]

Archiving shouldn't happen until a theme is approved.

This way we can archive and re-organize the forums in one shot.

[Furioku]

I doubt anything is going to get done then. :/ If you ask me it'd be best to start from step 1 and work from the ground up. But eh, so I guess we'll have to figure out a theme for the site.

[Teim]

Monster trucks.

[Furioku]

Gaming board? Covering all games?

That was the original theme that got lost somewhere along the way.

[Furioku]

Oh, right.

MONSTER TRUCKS! GRAVE DIGGER PWNS!

[Invincible]

I don't like monster trucks that much, perhaps flower arranging or homophobia!

[Teim]

I think we should all start playing games with each other over the interwebs, start little tournaments and stuff, and someones bound to notice.

[kawaii bishie irl]

Ok, so it's agreed, we'll have an online tournament of Monster Truck Madness to promote TGP's love of monster trucking, good idea Teim!

That's not a bad idea.

And not just stick to one game, move on to many games (including Monster Truck Madness ;)).
